Thank you.

Yes, I always am ready to welcome in a new year with new possibilities. I finished 2007 by having to put down a beloved pet and began 2008 with going to a friend's funeral. This has been a hard year for a lot of people as well as me. I lost my father-in-law and saw a lot of my friends hurting. I'm entering 2009 without a full time job and more importantly without being able to be there with the class I've come to love. I'm looking forward to a new president and to new challenges that are creeping into my personal life. I like the opportunity to roll my sleeves up and do work on myself and my relationships.

What about you?
